HELP THE Y TURN UP THE LIGHTS!
The Boothbay Region YMCA is engaged in a fast-tracked fundraising project to transform the fieldhouse. We will dramatically improve the fieldhouse LIGHTS, TURN UP the lights in the gym, and replace and BRIGHTEN the fieldhouse courts and replace the track.
Sports Interiors, a racquet sports lighting company, will install and indirect LED lighting system including placement of an insulated white liner in the ceiling to reflect the light which will also improve heating efficiencies.
Maine Tennis and Track will level the entire surface of the fieldhouse and replace it with a professional multi-use floor with colors consistent with USTA standards. The courts will be re-lined for tennis (2 courts), pickleball (8 courts) and will include lines for pick up basketball.
The elevated track will be refurbished and a new rubber sport surface will be installed, the carpeting and bumpers will be removed, and the banked sides flattended to be replaced by fintess areas to increase accessibility.
